Film Choice

Hello all!



I was wondering what the better film would be for pushed exposures. I
normally use NPZ, and have never tried Press 800. I am looking to push to
1600 - 2000 range. I prefer fine grain and as little color shift as
possible.



Does anyone have any suggestions?



Thanks!

Forgot to add. For street photography.

There's nothing better than NPZ for C41 push processing. Ask for push-2
and it will improve shadow density by about 2/3 stop, and of course it
increases contrast. NPZ is one of the few films that does more than just
increase contrast when push processed. [Ctein, Photo Techniques]
